I’m only here to lurk and cause trouble. /sarcasm (Psst...I actually love Fini.) Perhaps I misunderstood your comment. 🤷♂️ I would try to incorporate something about "shtick", garfield... but I'm at a loss for anything witty.

Your wit is sufficient and noted. It’s your sensitivity to oblique comments that’s on display. And I’m not sure how you got from A show About Design Disasters to “Bluecoats are Narcissistic”. BTW, they could call their shtick something witty like “Design Disasters, because the Bluecoats do bad design better than anyone”. (Lighten up, Nancy. It’s just June.)

EVERYTHING is an abstract mess at this point in the season, that's always been the case. I withhold final judgment until August. One of my favorite corps shirts was a Cadets shirt in the early 90's. It was a blurry version of their logo, with the caption "Don't worry, it will be clear in August" 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barigirl78 Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Ultimately, it's not about "self-indulgence", but "judge indulgence". If the judges didn't reward these shows, the designers would do something they do reward. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ouch, ouch... ouch That's a remarkably un-light...ened way to tell someone to lighten up. But you're the boss, chief. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spatzzz Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 How many artists works were universally panned at the outset only to be later looked upon as masterworks? Of course some never received critical acclaim, that is how art works. I'm sure many will groan at calling this activity art but that is what it is, a form of performance art in its own right. Maybe a stretch in this activity but I think it is something to think about and reference when viewing programs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
